    Post User Accounts

    XP Pro:
    I've created user accounts for my wife and son with administrative rights but for some reason, they cannot use/access any of the programs that I can use with my account. I thought having admin privileges would allow total access. Any and all suggestions appreciated....thanks....d

    I don't know much about XP but in Unix the file must have execute permissions...Try changing the ownership.

    What exactly don't they have? If it is just shortcuts in the program menu, copy them from the profile that has them to the all users profile. Which ever profile was logged into during the software installation would have these shortcuts. This can be found in "c:\documents and settings" directory (c: being the drive XP is installed). These shortcuts, if moved will probably require admin membership, so you will want to inherit from the directory above, to make sure you don't limit access from any non-administrators.

    Now, if this is not going to fix your problem, please post back with the specific symptom that you are experiencing.
